Blue Light of the Flame by Dar Williams Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How did we lose this great wrath?
Everything burns in our path
The balance we broke
Left us running through smoke
You're at the blue light of the flame

[Verse 2]
As the earth melts at the poles
I race to man the controls
And I work harder
Fiercer and smarter
You're at the blue light of the flame

[Bridge]
So this is where it all ends
With the flowers by your bed
And your friends come to you
As the light turns to dark
But the light shines through
[Verse 3]
Yes when the hurricanes came
We were the gods that we blamed
We have orange-red fire
We fear our desire
You kneel at the blue light of the flame
Out beyond rescue
Somebody let you
Look into the blue light of the flame
